1.2 GENERAL SAFETY
 Familiarise yourself with the applications, limitations and potential hazards of the saw.
 WARNING! Disconnect the saw from the mains power before changing accessories, servicing or performing any maintenance.
 The machine must only be serviced by a qualified person or service agent. Contact your Sealey dealer for information.
 Select a work area suitable for the saw and keep the area clean, tidy and free from unrelated materials. Ensure that there is adequate
lighting.

Permanently mount the saw on a supporting surface strong enough to take the weight of the machine and workpiece.
 Wood dust can be harmful to health by inhalation and skin contact. Concentrations of small dust particles in the air can form an
explosive mixture. Ensure that there is adequate ventilation and that the saw is attached to a dust-extraction unit.
 Maintain the saw in good condition, check moving parts alignment regularly. Keep saw blades clean and sharp. ,
 Replace or repair damaged parts. Use recommended parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
 WARNING! Keep all guards and holding screws in place, tight and in good working order. Check regularly for damaged parts.
A guard, or any other part, that is damaged should be repaired or replaced before the saw is next used. The safety guard is a mandatory
fitting where the saw is used in premises covered by the Health & Safety at Work Act.

Before commencing work, ensure the saw blade is set to cut in the correct direction, securely fastened, sharp and is compatible with the
machine, spindle speed and the material to be cut. Never use a saw blade if damaged, bent or warped. Use only recommended saw
blades.

Remove adjusting keys and wrenches from the machine and the vicinity before switching on.
 Machine operators must have received sufficient training and instructions relating to the dangers associated with the machine, the
precautions to be observed and the requirements of the Wood Working Machines Regulations. Operators must be under the adequate
supervision of a person who has a thorough knowledge and experience of the machine and the appropriate regulations.

DO NOT operate the saw if any parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or personal injury.

1.1 ELECTRICAL SAFETY
 WARNING! it is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and
any other connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of
appropriate safety devices. A Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also
recommend that a Residual Current Device (RCD) is used. it is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are
plugged into a supply which is not protected by an RCCB. if in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual
Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1 The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2 The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those appliances
and the safety of the appliance operators. if in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3 Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply. See 1.1.1 and 1.1.2
and use a Portable Appliance Tester.
1.1.4 Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5 Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all
connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6 important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply
to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7 DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8 DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9 DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. immediately have any faulty
item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When a BS 1363/A UK 3 pin plug is
damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of the plug safely.
Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the cable outer insulation extends
beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight. Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are
fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only. To rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO NOT connect either wire to
the earth terminal.
1.1.10 Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. in this case you must contact a qualified electrician to ensure
that a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an industrial round pin plug and socket
with your electrician.
1.1.11 if an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance
plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the
capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use
of 2.5mm² section cable.
